VIDEO: Simple Ways To Wrap Christmas Gifts In Less Than 30 Seconds

As we celebrate and enjoy the Christmas season, a great deal of us plan to give out a few gifts to friends and family to demonstrate our thankfulness and love for them. One test confronted with regards to presenting gifts is the manner by which to wrap them.

It can look quite complicated and can be a frustrating process if you do not know what you are doing. Besides, if you have a number of gifts to wrap and limited time, it can feel downright impossible. This need to wrap presents in record time was probably why this technique is trending.

Below is a Japanese trick for wrapping your presents within 30 seconds.

Step 1: Situate the gift diagonally, not straight. You will want it set in such position that the paper can go all the way up the side when folded.
